The Young and the Restless Recap: It’s Connor’s World, We Only Live In It

The Young and the Restless recap for Thursday, September 16, 2021, takes us back to the days when Connor Newman’s happiness was in the forefront of every Genoa City citizen’s mind. Plus, Nicholas Newman claims it’s his sister’s happiness he’s thinking about when he pumps her for details about Ashland Locke – and so does Billy Abbott.

The Young and the Restless Recap Highlights

While most Y&R moppets are sent upstairs for years while their parents go on with their lives, Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) feels compelled to run his every move past Connor (Judah Mackey). He even brings in Sharon Rosales (Sharon Case) for professional help.

(Hey, how is Harrison Locke doing, having lost his mother and father within a span of a few days and now living in a country where he doesn’t speak the language with a man he barely knows and a woman he doesn’t know at all, both of whom have high-pressure jobs? Anyone think of getting him some professional help?)

Connor instantly blames Sharon for his parents’ break-up and runs away. Adam is less than a minute behind him, but it seems he can’t keep up with a child half his size. Luckily, Connor ends up at the same park bench everyone in town goes to…which is where he runs into Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope).

The two chat and chill. Sally’s passive-aggressive swipe at Adam actually gets through to Connor. Sharon looks like she’s afraid her services will no longer be needed and slinks away.

Y&R Recap: Threats Are Us

Ashland (Richard Burgi) warns Billy (Jason Thompson) not to keep digging into his past. This convinces Billy that Ashland has even more to hide. Ashland warns Nick (Joshua Morrow) not to keep digging into his past. This convinces Nick that Ashland has even more to hide.

Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) doesn’t want to hear about it from her brother. Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) doesn’t want to hear about it from her boyfriend. Billy whines that the big, bad men threatened him! Nick goes running to Daddy Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) to ask if they’re really going to stop snooping on Ashland. Victor wants to. Nick doesn’t. Ashland gets another text from his mystery stalker. He lies about it to Victoria.
